Located less than 15 minutes to shopping, dining, and entertainment in Ocala rests this idyllic horse property comprised of nearly 25 acres fenced and gated with a 6 stall center aisle concrete block barn, red-iron insulated workshop and incredibly well-built barndominium style 3,800 sqft residence tucked privately in the back of the property.

Soaring ceilings, polished concrete flooring and a floating mahogany staircase define the space. The first floor features a fully open living, dining and kitchen, two primary suites, two mud rooms and laundry plus spacious screened patio overlooking the pastures while the upstairs loft offers an additional bedroom, full bathroom and living loft/office space designed with the flexibility to add another bedroom or enclose a dedicated office.
